I am a postdoctoral researcher in molecular cardiology, driven by one central question: How do proteins and mitochondrial function shape the rhythm and resilience of the heart? With over seven years of hands-on experience in advanced molecular biology, mitochondrial physiology, and metabolic assays, I investigate the molecular mechanisms that regulate cardiac contraction and dysfunction at the cellular level. My work focuses on mitochondrial dynamics and bioenergetics in cardiomyocytes, uncovering how alterations in energy metabolism contribute to heart disease. By integrating rigorous experimentation with creative problem-solving, I aim to translate mechanistic insights into potential therapeutic strategies. I thrive at the intersection of curiosity-driven science and practical application — designing innovative approaches, troubleshooting complex systems, and continuously expanding my technical and conceptual toolkit. Ultimately, my goal is to contribute to the development of novel therapeutic avenues that improve cardiac health and patient outcomes.
